Serious question: are there a lot of R&B fans that are into that kind of music? For me, there's absolutely nothing musically redeeming about it. But a lot of people seem to enjoy it - more power to them. I really just don't understand it at all.

In the 90s, a lot of R&B artists had dance mixes on their singles. It got them played in clubs, I guess. I always loved that R. Kelly avoided it. His remixes were always re-workings of the songs. Except for the Slang Dance remixes, I can't think of any other dance remixes he did. I don't know, the fact that he's straight up making the music bothers me. I'm just glad it's a song on the soundtrack and not an album track. But we'll see on the 11th.

I normally wouldn't even say anything about this but I'm genuinely confused.

Yes, there are a lot of R&B fans who are into House music. Especially the older generation who grew up listening and dancing to House (or Juke) music. House music originated in Chicago so it makes sense that Kellz chose this sound for this song since it's about Chicago. I actually love that he did. I thought it was going to be a ballad so it's a nice twist. I think the song is genius.

Christmas Party, that song is a banger (I'd like to save the word "classic" cuz only time will tell if it will become one). I like it a whole lot better than Backyard Party! Warmer, fuller, rawer, richer....That's how you put people in the holiday spirit!

Christmas party is fantastic, is vocals and background vocals are outstanding and better than the original! With put down the guns and Christmas party getting good buzz the hype leading up to the buffet seem to be getting stronger!

Christmas Party is real good. Glad that it's just been put out there by itself too and won't be on the album like Love Letter Christmas was, avoids having to skip it when listening to the album from January-November.

Put the Guns Down is ok. I was disappointed it was a house song but I didn't know the significance of house music to Chicago until I saw on here.

I got your eyes rolling back, finger nails in your spine.(Sex in the evening, sex all night)Never had a sex session, like this one in your life!

I think the release of Christmas Party would explain why Backyard Party wasn't a summer single. He probably had the Christmas version ready to go. Probably needed Backyard Party to still be moderately hot when it dropped.
